Anyone ever heard or used these tires on a ninja 250 before ? ; IRC Road Winner RX-01R tires. I've never heard of a company called IRC. I ended up getting my rear tire replaced with one of these for a 100 bux . (rear tired hadn't been replaced in 9100km's and there were some nasty cracks...

Thanks invictus43 . I'll just work on keeping my throttle hand as steady as possible I guess. I don't have the "know how" , patience or money right now to do a jetting.

The bike jerks whenever you apply or decrease throttle, more so in first and second, slightly on 3rd and not at all in 4th and 5th. I know what people mean by referring to "not being smooth on the throttle" and that this is a common newb mistake. The slightest , and I do mean slightest ...

On my 2008 Ninja 250, the throttle control/response is extremely jerky/sensitive in the lower gears, specifically gears 1 and 2. 3rd gear is ok, not very noticeable and on 4/5 it doesn't exist. Regardless of the engine being warmed up, this happens 80% of the time I take it out for a ride (I...

Ok, some questions, 1. The aftermarket exhaust on my ninja 250 is new , less than 500km on it. So would repacking it with "Silent Sport / Premium" change it , as in reduce the decibels ? Isn't repacking only done when the packing inside an exhaust has "degraded/worn out" due to mileage ? 2...

So that's a no...

I bought a Leo Vince GP Corsa Carbon exhaust for my ninja 250 because I didn't like the look of the original exhaust ( also has some rust issues). I was excited to get something "louder" but after a while even with a Decibel Killer installed it started getting on my nerves :rolleyes: . Just...

Mmhmmm ..... I think I'll just stick to "stock". I'm sure no mechanic around here would go through all the trouble to properly install and fine tune a jet kit (like on that post you linked me to) on a 250.

Wow, those are some awesome and detailed responses (Thanks Brian P and Skip). I think you guys straightened me out but I feel like I'm even more confused now (due to all the new technical info), don't really know were to go from here. So..., a slip on exhaust doesn't do much in terms of...

Then why did the dealer "make it sound" like the Leo Vince exhaust shouldn't be coupled with a jet kit ?

08 Ninja 250

I've been looking at a Leo Vince GP Corsa Carbon slip on exhaust and also looking at a dyno jet kit. One of the Leo Vince suppliers told me that the GP Corsa exhaust was designed for use without any "re-jetting" (I asked about a dyno jet kit). What does this exactly mean ? How do you know...

Thanks, just passed by there today and ordered a rear axle for 47bux. (Not bad considering no shipping charges...) I also ended up asking so guy there if it would be worth spending some cash to do some upgrades to my ninja 250 or just move to a 600 (obviously 600 is the way to go). I asked him...

I'm looking for a new axle for my rear wheel on my 2008 Kawasaki Ninja 250 , but I can't seem to find anything too reasonable. I'm finding on various sites the axle costing between 30-35 bux, but the shipping is what stops me from ordering. Shipping is anywere between 23-40 bux (even found a...

Thanks for the replies guys, I took it to a mechanic and everything checks out fine, he said the sound is normal, just light contact from pads and disc.

I just bought a used 08 Ninja 250, had 7000+ km on it when I bought it. I had it certified by Ted Rose of Rosey Toes Motorcycles and was told that the break pads have around 40% left in them before I need a change. With the engine off and in neutral, whenever I roll the bike into my garage or...

Damn those tickets, by the time they expire from my driving record it will be 2013/14 ... don't want to wait, gonna have to bite the bullet on this. Is there anyway I can get those tickets removed from my driving record permanently ? (They have already been paid , just want them to disappear...

I called them up and they gave me a quote for around 2,100 bux. Pretty steep, just because I apparently have 3 traffic tickets from 2010 ....

Hmm.. I thought I had a clean driving record but I was mistaken ! Apparently I have 3 traffic convictions still under my name (2 speeding tickets and running an amber light).... Although I paid the tickets a year and a half ago they remain under my name / record for three years... So , State...

Is it possible for me to get a lower quote on insurance if I'm a university student ? OR have "some sort" of coverage from my university on vehicle insurance ?? (Feels like this is a weird question) I saw somewere on this forum that someone mentioned theyr in University (YorkU) and it helped...
